Reliable, Attentive and Loving!

Pet care experience

I've been looking after animals for much of my life! Whenever a friend or family member needed someone to watch/board their little nugget I was always the first call. I wasn't allowed to have a pet growing up young so I would take care of everyone and anyones dogs that needed some attention. I finally got my own little beagle puppy when I was in 8th grade and Lana was my best friend for over a decade until she passed peacefully. Now I live with three very interesting and loving dogs: Uku, Fifi and Brisket (all rescues).

Ian was the best when taking care of our kitten! He’s always so responsive and made sure our cat had fresh food and water. He’d spend extra time to play with our cat and give him pets and snuggles. He gave regular updates and even sent pictures while we were away. Ian goes above and beyond for the pets he’s taking care of to help give the owners some ease while away. I can’t recommend Ian enough to help take care of your furry friends!!

ian is the PERFECT pet caregiver! he is the first person i call to take care of my baby if i leave town or working long hours. he has been very meticulous to my requests (my dog is a picky eater and can be challenging to take on a walk) and patient to my dog’s temperaments. he will send updates to ensure your pet is taken care of and having a great time. i don’t trust many people to leave my dog with overnight, but ian has done such an amazing job with my dog, i know i can go on vacation without any wor updates, and will ask questions to ensure your pet is properly taken care of. i don’t trust many people to take care of my dog overnight, but ian has been so great that i can go on vacation without any worries.

Safety, trust & environment

When I am responsible for another persons animal I take it extremely seriously. I am there to safeguard and make sure that your precious one is well taken care of, happy and safe. There is nothing more important to me than being a reliable and attentive caregiver. Animals get the love and attention they deserve whenever I am involved.

Information Ian S. would like to know about your pet

I enjoy the company of all breeds of dogs. But I would like to know about your little nugget! When we first meet, I'll go over certain questions such as: Does your dog have any triggers? How do they interact with other animals? What allergies or health conditions should I be aware of? etc

A typical day

I love to take puppers out on nice walks around the neighborhood, to parks they're familiar with or even on hikes up to Debs or at Griffith Park observatory if I've got some extra time with them! And for the kitties, well that depends on what they like to do indoors haha. I know some love to play and others just want to hang out.
